For the longest time in World of Warcraft, when you finished a quest at max level, the experience you would earn would get converted to gold. But in WoW Forever, Blizzard killed off that conversion, and has now added a fix.

The experience-to-gold conversion for quests completed at high level has been a part of WoW for nearly 20 years, to the point where a lot of players rely on it to build up some cash when they hit max level, especially in the Classic versions of the game. But, when WoW Forever launched last week, that conversion was missing, and now that players are starting to hit level 60, they're starting to feel that loss of gold.

Thankfully, Blizzard community manager Kaivax has posted on the WoW forum to say a hotfix will go live "in the next 24 hours or so" to help high level players earn a little bit of gold. Rather than converting experience to gold, Blizzard will buff the gold rewarded for high level quests, regardless of what level you are.

According to Kaivax: "we’re preparing a hotfix that will add additional gold rewards to most quests with a quest level of level 48 or higher, including adding gold to quests above level 48 that never previously rewarded gold at all. The idea here is that you should feel good about doing quests at the appropriate level to progress your character, and you should feel adequately rewarded with gold for doing so."
